National Center for Image Guided Therapy

Computation Core

William "Sandy" Wells, Ph.D., Core PI

Objectives

The Computation Core provides the computing infrastructure advancements required by the NCIGT Cores that will then extend to the IGT community. Its primary focuses are: engineering 3D Slicer, the NCIGT's surgical navigational platform; high performance computing, the improvement of the efficiency and effectiveness of medical image analysis areas involved in image guided therapy; and spatial neuroinformatics, the discovery of and improvement on information processing requirements of the NCIGT's Neurosurgery Core.

Projects

Some of the NCIGT's projects within which the Computation Core provides leadership and central input are:
